i think rahm emanuel and john boehner would have gotten along. i have always thought that. it is easy to be a chief of staff when your party controls everything. you can get some things done. to go back to rahm, you say he was supposed to be an enforcer, but he never felt like he had the power that he wanted. i think all the chiefs of staff, in some way or another -- >> he wanted a tough guy. >> he wanted a tough guy and someone from washington -- >> because he did not want to do that. >> that is true. he did not necessarily give him the authority that rahm wanted. >> when you look at his confidence, david brooks and i have had an ongoing series of conversations about this president. david says he is probably the most confident men i have ever, in politics, dealt with. >> what presidents aren't confident? >> it is like, what senator does not get up wanting to be president? >> there is something different about guys that become president. >> you think he has the same confidence in george bush had? >> yes, definitely. he is, one of the things you hear from staff, he usually u

the argument that rahm emanuel made to me is you have to pick your battles and he decided he needed washingtonrk even if it's flawed, to work its will in order to do the major stimulus, to do the auto bailout and then of course he chose to do health care but that was part of a big thing. but he never tried to fix the politics at the end of the day. he didn't put the elbow grease into it. and again, his defenders will say it's because he chose this, he had this crisis. with a perfectly rational explanation but he was elected to sort of change persona, whether overseas or here in washington, or the politics of the country. >> he's been in office six years now and yet you still call the book "the stranger." don't we know barack obama by now? >> i'm writing it from a washington prison, guilty as charged as far as washington. and i think as far as washington institutions are concerned, he is a stranger. and he still views these institutions strangely. >> chuck todd. pittsburgh, pennsylvania, is well known as an old steel town but did you also know it's famous for its bridges. the city has 446 of th

rahm emanuel doesn't want me to do it. whatever reason, he has been making thomas's since he was -- promises since he was a candidate. on the other side, obama has zero credibility, republicans are at negative numbers on immigration. you have a constituency of hasgration advocates that no credibility. you have obama, who has run out of time and excuses. luis was going to change them so to a white house fence. -- himself to a white house fence. they may send the dogs. think, you know, i think the smart thing for the white house to do is to write down what they intend the executive action today. peopleknows and it has nervous because we do not know how big or little it will be. write it down, show to everybody, tell the latino community, tell the immigration "this is what i intend to do if republicans do not act." you have until august to get this done. if the republicans do not get her act together, he wins. if the republicans get something passed, he wins. action, thatcutive is the easiest out. say, "we are not going to do

republicans and democrats who often tell their parties where to go, the congressional black caucus head rahm emanuelho just won 52% of the vote, or hoyer, or james clyburne, pretty comfortable in their convictions and pretty comfortable coming here to express them. i am sure that democratic operatives sold them they would get nothing out of it. but silly me, to a man or woman, they all seem to do pretty well, at least with me, fair and balanced. they're always happy to come on and state their case with me. not a one of them suffered for it at home. not the congressman democrat who just won with 73% of the vote, or chris van holland, who want with 60% of the vote. even those never seem to have a problem. pennsylvania democratic senator bob casey, and joe manchin. reminding them that maybe fox is not the problem, maybe those who foolishly follow party orders are not. take it from me, who talked to the stars who did not have a problem talking to me. dick durbin, now, i'm sure some said why bother? but they bothered. just like a democrat who ran for president did. oh yeah, and a democrat who was preside

but there are opportunities to quote rahm emanuel, which i don't often do, is to cite the idea that you, you don't take a, don't let a crisis go to waste. in this case, is rather than trying to address the ebola problem, try to address a larger set of issues through the problem b to identify the things that will make a difference for the next common thing that also has a way of causing us both significant disruption and cost. >> i would just add quickly to that, i'm not sure i put it as starkly as tara did, that programs to generate countermeasu countermeasures have mostly failed, but i would say those programs could improve. we need to do better at research and at generating new research for the challenges that we face as opposed to finding ways for bio pharma companies to leverage their existing companies into something the stockpile problem might want to have. >> the young lady. this one, we'll get you next. all right? >> talk radio news. you guys touched on this, but i was wondering if you could give your perspective on the quarantine policies that have been put in place by a few st
